TopLine Strategies Assists SuperShuttle International with Next Generation MS CRM Technology

TopLine Strategies helps turn on Microsoft Dynamics CRM to supercharge sales and marketing for national leader in door-to-door airport shuttle service.

Scottsdale, AZ – October 22, 2010 - TopLine Strategies, a national provider of information technology integration and development lifecycle services, announced today a new client for its CRM practice, SuperShuttle International, a division of Veolia Transportation on Demand. The strategic relationship, focused on implementing new CRM technologies to maximizing marketing and sales efforts for SuperShuttle, began earlier this year to initiate systems design and testing, optimization and planning. The full initial deployment of the system across North Americas was completed this month.

“SuperShuttle was founded on a simple promise of providing door-to-door airport shuttle service that is reliable, efficient, affordable and friendly. We reduce the hassle of getting to and from the airport, and our millions of loyal customers across the country are proof of that fact“ said Ken Testani, Senior Vice President Global Marketing & Partnerships for SuperShuttle. “Our national sales team needed a CRM strategy that could take advantage of our unique market position, and deliver results. TopLine Strategies worked with us for several months, helping us evaluate the options in the market, including Salesforce CRM, SugarCRM, and Oracle CRM, before we settled on Microsoft Dynamics CRM. A key driver for us was ease of use and ease of adoption. TopLine Strategies’ Microsoft’s credentials were outstanding.”

Microsoft Dynamics CRM is designed to get a sales force and a marketing group quickly up to speed with the advanced but easy-to-use features. Users of the systems can take advantage of a highly intuitive interface and embedded Microsoft Office capabilities to boost sales productivity, streamline sales cycles, automate lead management, and gain insights to drive more sales. “The product flexibility is stunning. We especially liked the way that Microsoft Dynamics CRM is able to transform every customer touch point into a marketing opportunity. We can now harness the undiscovered potential within our client base,” noted Testani, Senior Vice President Global Marketing & Partner.

“SuperShuttle is an ideal fit for Microsoft Dynamics CRM”, said Bob Neeser TopLine Strategies’ President. He added, “There’s a high degree of confidence and familiarity with Microsoft technologies in general at SuperShuttle. This familiarity is positively impacting adoption across their enterprise. And with SuperShuttle, adoption of their CRM initiative has meant levels of service to their client interests.”
